阿尔巴尼亚山区一间餐厅，每天都有不少游客前去用餐，不过最主要吸引他们的是餐厅的「人气宠儿」汤米。

‘In his small cage he is unable to express even the most basic natural behaviour. In this environment he is not able to follow his natural instincts, has no opportunity to move properly, look for food, climb, dig or take a bath'
 
汤米 (Tomi) 是一只原本在山里快乐长大的野生棕熊，但自从2年前他被老板抓到以后，就一直被迫生活在狭小的铁笼里。

 

 这些游客经常拿着手机、相机开心找他合照，有时候喂他一些零食、洋芋片，有时候餐厅老板会让他喝啤酒解渴。

They take videos of him on their smart-phones, pose for selfies, and if feeling kind give him sweets, cake and crisps. His owner occasionally gives him beer to quench his thirst
 
Only about 250 brown bears remain at large in the poverty stricken country (in addition to the estimated 80 bears living in cages)
 
但长期在这个压迫空间生活、吃不饱，让汤米终于受不了、崩溃了。

当他闻到食物的时候，他会合起双掌、摆出祈求的姿势，求路人给他东西吃；有时候，他真的太饿了，会张嘴咬著铁笼栏杆，绝望地希望有人可以施舍他食物。

Crowds flock to see Tomi the brown bear in his ‘home’ - a tiny cage next to a run-down restaurant in beautiful mountains 40 miles north of the Albanian capital Tirana

 

不只这样，有时候汤米还会在笼子里焦虑地走来走去，甚至到后来出现自残、咬自己的四肢。

Sometimes he paces around his cage intensely, and then goes into what appears to be a self-harming spasm – biting his limbs while shaking his head violently

他的「主人」说，汤米会出现这些行为只是因为他很无聊，一点都不认为把他没日没夜地关在笼子里有什么问题。

但在动物权利专家眼里，汤米的行为是因为「生活极度单调和封闭的生活条件」，他们看了影片后说，「这只熊的行为已经非常异常，他真的受不了了。」

这位不愿具名的餐厅老板强调，当初他雇用一名猎人使用麻醉枪才抓到汤米，等同他买下了汤米，他不认为自己有错，也坚持汤米是店里的招牌宠物。

The anonymous restaurant owner said: ‘I have had Tomi for two years. I paid a vet from Tirana to shoot him with a tranquilliser. Business has gone up since’

 

但看看汤米的悲惨生活环境，不仅肮脏潮湿，还有满地的垃圾、零食包装袋、橡皮圈和他的排泄物。

From his cage, which is full of litter including discarded crisps and sweets bags, he can hear birds singing and the sound of running water while chickens walk past him in the safe knowledge he can do them no harm

 

事实上今年已经5岁的汤米，并非唯一被捕捉的野生棕熊，据调查，阿尔巴尼亚境内一共有330只野生棕熊，其中有80几只被餐厅非法眷养，甚至有些业者会强迫野熊跳舞、表演来娱乐客人。

The man who runs the restaurant, who refuses to reveal his name, came up with his idea of taking the bear out of his natural habitat - in a bid to boost takings. He said he paid a vet to hunt Tomi down with a tranquiliser gun
 
许多动保团体要求当地政府出面解救这些可怜的动物，但直到现在，政府尚未做出什么行动。

 

许多客人都不晓得自己的「观光」带给这些野生动物们什么样的悲惨下场。

Tomi is one of about 80 brown bears thought to be trapped in cages at restaurants, petrol stations and beaches across Albania

 

餐厅老板说，「汤米其实就跟人一样，只是他不会说话而已，他也很习惯人类了。有一次我忘了给他喝水，他就发出很大的噪音，引起我的注意，后来我发现后就赶紧回去喂他喝水。」

Later, as Tomi became distressed and chewed his limbs and shook his head, the owner said casually: 'Sometimes he gets bored and does this. It's quite usual'
 
The restaurant owner was unapologetic about Tomi’s plight. 'Once I forgot to leave him water and he made a big noise and I realised something was wrong so I went back to his cage and realised 'oh my god, I forgot his water'
 
对于汤米做出的异常行为，他也只是淡淡表示，「他只是无聊而已，这很正常。」

 

动物福利专家表示，「在这个窄小的铁笼里，他连最基本的生活条件都没有，他没办法发挥动物的本能，没有办法自由移动、寻找食物、攀爬、挖土、洗澡。他无法躲避游客的骚扰，而且被迫要和游客互动，才能换取食物。这个环境不只对一只熊来说难以忍受，我们也真的看不下去。」

Zoologist Thomas Pietsch, of the London-based campaign group FOUR PAWS, said: ‘The bear shows a very strong behavioural disorder which is clear evidence of serious animal welfare deficits. This self-harming behaviour is clearly compulsive and is a result of the extremely monotonous and confined living conditions'
 
「长期下来，这样糟糕的生活环境只会让熊越来越忧郁、焦躁，最后就导致像影片中那样出现自残的行为。」

 

今年，当地动保团体已经和阿尔巴尼亚政府的环保署开始合作，希望联手扫除迫害动物的环境，还给他们一个自由正常的生活。

'This situation is unbearable for the bear and totally unacceptable from an animal welfare perspective. Conditions such as these lead to extreme frustration for bears, which results in the strong behavioural disorder shown in the video’

 

不过大家仍期待当地政府能更有作为，且更确实地执行法律，毕竟早在2013年，阿尔巴尼亚便通过禁止私自持有棕熊，但这个情况似乎没有改善太多…
